Reconstructions of Home presents HEAR US Audioscape

Upon encountering a strange signal from a nearby star system, the crew of the Soundship "Harmonizer" set off to investigate. 

A being in a soundship of its own was caught in an unconscious orbit around this planet, and its heavy groove disrupting the lives of the inhabitants and causing natural disasters. 

The crew of the Harmonizer taps into the song of the being to understand what it is and why it is there...

In the Depths - Pt 1 of "The Way Home"

A hypnotically warbly lo-fi hiphop track. Production and vocal solo by Ry King.

Planetary Groove - Ry King

Part one of my electro-organic rock space opera epic "The Way Home."
